Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 634 The Ultimate Mystery That Determines Everything
The great Mao Zedong said something similar: The ultimate mystery that determines everything is people.

So when Bai Canghai led more than 100 people to a place outside the imperial city according to Ye Chen's previous instructions and plan, the torches on the wall in front of them were suddenly blown out by the wind.Then the small face of Shui'er wearing a maid's uniform appeared on the city wall and waved to them, while the dozens of Imperial Guard soldiers around Shui'er were like sculptures, motionless, indescribably weird.

Bai Canghai hurriedly led his men to spread out their movement skills, and approached the city wall as quickly as possible, without making a sound, then took out the special grappling hook made by the Weapons Department of Huaxia Weifu, and threw it on the city wall. They all went up the city wall, and then went down the city wall.

Everyone is a master. After a short stay on the city wall, they can see at a glance that the dozens of imperial guards guarding this section of the city wall have been poisoned. It is naturally a strange poison to make these soldiers stand still after being poisoned. Naturally, only the ghost doctor and Yu Qingyan can prepare this strange poison.

And it was too easy for a beautiful and lovely girl like Shui'er, who was born with the power of charm, to get close to these bloody Forbidden Army soldiers, and then poison them.

The entire imperial city is divided into three areas. The core area is a majestic building complex including Daqing Hall, Chongzheng Hall, and Imperial Study Room. In this building, the emperor of Song Dynasty and his officials discussed and decided the state of Song Dynasty. All things big and small.The place where the nobles live is behind this building complex, consisting of countless palaces, guarded by the inner guards and eunuchs of the inner court, and it has been generally called the harem since ancient times.In addition, there is an area commonly known as the Lenggong. There are no nobles living here, and it is basically a corner that has been forgotten by people.

Many people thought that once they entered the imperial city, they would be able to enter the harem smoothly, but they seemed to have forgotten how much an alternative male creature like the emperor cared about his own territory and his own women.

The emperors of all dynasties are very important to this matter, because they have too many women, no matter how talented they are in male hair, and no matter how many good tonics they take, they will inevitably neglect most women.Therefore, to a certain extent, the emperor tends to be the easiest person in the world to be cuckolded.

In order not to wear a cuckold, the emperors invented the eunuch, built a high wall along the middle edge of the harem and the front palace, and placed a large number of guards and eunuchs they trusted.Therefore, in history, perverts who had an affair or a finger with the concubines of the harem basically could not escape the three types of people: guards, imperial physicians, and eunuchs.

However, although the high walls of the harem could not stop the red apricots in the palace from stretching out of the wall, they successfully blocked many people who wanted to rebel.

History has already proved this point. Hundreds of years ago in the Northern Wei Dynasty, there was a civil servant who took advantage of the emperor's long tour to plot against him. At that time, he had more people than Bai Canghai brought tonight, but not much more. Leading 1000 people into the imperial city, relying on the internal support of the forbidden army, easily passed the defense of the forbidden army, and seeing success... But the queen who was left in the harem brought a large number of guards, eunuchs, and maids.Successfully kept those rebellious soldiers out of the palace gate.

In the end, this daring civil servant found out in despair——those women and children eunuchs were even more powerful than the imperial guards, and they actually blocked the thousand soldiers led by him from the palace for three days!
In the end, the rebellious civil servant, of course, ended in death.What succeeded in preventing this rebellion was the calmness and bravery of the queen, and the unity of the eunuchs, maids and guards in the palace.In fact, the most critical reason... is the high wall that the emperor used to keep women in captivity, it is too strong!
Now Bai Canghai and the others have successfully entered the imperial city, and under the leadership of Shui'er, they pretended to be a group of forbidden soldiers, followed the usual route, and carried out silent and tense patrols, passing through the route that Shui'er had inquired about a long time ago. , It was a bit weird like this, and he came to a certain place outside the palace wall unimpeded all the way.

The palace walls of the Great Song Palace are the same as the palaces of previous dynasties. They are also very strong and high, even higher than the walls of the imperial city.

However there are walls.There must be a door, unless it's an catacomb.In addition, because human beings have always disliked climbing in and out through another window opened by God.Therefore, no matter how strictly forbidden and strict the building is, all kinds of doors will be opened.

And if there is a door, there will naturally be someone who opens the door.Therefore, the key to determining whether a place is easy to attack is not how high and strong the wall is, or how thick the door is, and whether the bolt inside is made of fine steel.

It is still the old saying of Grandpa Mao: the ultimate mystery that determines everything - is people.And Ye Chen happened to grasp the person who could open the door.

The stars faded.The city is getting dark.

There are lights in the nearby buildings, and occasionally a few guards carrying lanterns can be seen patrolling.There was also the eunuch in charge of beating the watchman, who walked past with a slight bend.

Bai Canghai brought this group of 'Forbidden Army' to the place under the imperial city closest to the harem, and then... spread out like the wind!

Bai Canghai watched indifferently as the more than 100 people scattered like countless falcons.It rushed towards everyone and the lights in the palace that could be seen in front of him, but it took only a split second.Those lights disappeared.Several guards of Liao Liao were stabbed to death silently.

He nodded. The more than 100 people were a mixed force, including more than 30 professional killers, more than 20 swordsmen who were best at killing, and more than 50 quack masters with rich killing experience.Such a combination, under the premise of being organized and planned, kills in the dark, and the efficiency is really high.

Dorotuo, who was following him, glanced at him, then at the high wall of the harem about tens of feet away, and asked in a deep voice, "Strike?"

Bai Canghai glanced at a small door under the palace wall that could not be found without looking carefully, shook his head and said, "Let's go through the door."

"Go through the door?" Duo Luo Tuo looked at Bai Cang Hai in surprise, thinking that the words of assassinating Mr. Si Si Shi are really strange. Could it be that he can't succeed in the legendary magic technique of piercing through walls.

Bai Canghai ignored him, and only he and Lian Jicheng knew about some of the most secret things this time.

Bai Canghai took off the heavy imperial armor, revealing the tight-fitting black night clothes inside, and approached the square door under the cover of the trees in the front palace.

Lian Jicheng, who was behind him, made a gesture behind him, and more than 100 assassins were scattered in the surrounding darkness. They also took off the armor of the imperial army, and all of them were black night clothes.Immediately afterwards, they flew back like bats, arranged in two straight lines with Bai Canghai as the center, and stuck tightly to the palace wall of the harem.

Duo Luo Tuo also followed, standing two feet behind Bai Canghai, looked up at the palace wall, thinking that it was not too high, at least half of the more than 100 people could climb over with the help of the grappling hook.

At this moment, the clouds in the sky dispersed slightly, and a round of clear and bright moon came out from the light clouds.

Under the beautiful moon, Bai Canghai followed Ye Chen's instructions, stood in front of the door, and began to gently knock on the door.

The knuckles lightly landed on the heavy wooden door, making a slight buzzing sound, but it was just a sound, no one responded from behind the wooden door, but followed by the slight sound of the door spring.

The more than 100 men in black lurking on both sides of Bai Canghai could not help showing shock on their faces. Tonight, according to King Xiangfu's order, they followed Bai Canghai into the palace. Although these 100 people were brave and loyal, It is also tragically ready to die.

But he didn't expect to knock on the door of the harem so lightly!
At this moment, the more than 100 people felt infinite awe in their hearts for the commander-in-chief who didn't know where he was hiding and what he was going to do, and their confidence in tonight's success or failure was also doubled.

This small wooden door in the harem is extremely heavy, and it is obvious that the inside of the door should have some difficulty opening it.Bai Canghai closed his eyes, put his palm on the wooden door, suddenly frowned, the true energy in his body poured out slightly, passed along the palm to the door, and shook the wooden door about one person wide.

The door was opened very gently, without making a sound.

Bai Canghai flashed through the door like a gust of wind, and then glanced at the little eunuch behind the door who looked at him nervously and terrified, and recognized that the other party was Xiao Xin, the eunuch who was very favored in front of the first emperor and the present King Jin, Once again, I felt that Ye Chen had ambushed such a deep secret in the palace.Thinking this way, he nodded slightly and said, "Eunuch Xin has worked hard."

Xin Shi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked at the dark surroundings with some panic, and didn't dare to answer.

Although King Jin, Pan Mei, Xu Fangyi, and Xuesha had decided to force the snake out of the hole and lure the enemy into the urn, they also thought that there would definitely be Ye Chen's internal response in the palace, and even knew that Shui'er was hiding in the palace for this reason. And let it go, but I'm afraid they didn't expect that this traitor turned out to be Xin Shi who had been trusted and trained by Wang Jien and Zhao Guangyi as Wang Jien's successor!
Xin Shi looked around in fear, he was actually a little puzzled.Why is it so smooth to open the door by yourself.Why didn't those guards who were staring around find themselves?
"My lord, this servant will lead you the way..."

Through the small wooden door that is one person wide, a man in black floats in from time to time.The speed of these men in black was extremely fast, and they all rushed into the harem in no time.Choose the terrain to hide your body shape.Xin Shi watched this scene, trembling with fear.Knowing that this is the subordinate used by King Xiangfu to mess up the palace.Just looking at...there seem to be too few people, right?

"King Xiangfu specifically confessed that you open the door and find a place to hide, or just find a place to pretend to be dead."

Bai Canghai said softly to Xin Shi, in the past two days, Ye Chen drew a three-dimensional picture of the imperial palace with his own hands, and each of them has already firmly recorded this picture in their minds.So although they came to the palace for the first time, they were more familiar with the terrain of the palace than some eunuchs who had stayed in the palace for many years. After all, there were some places where eunuchs could not go at will.
